Role summary
We are seeking a Tech Lead, Enterprise Systems to design, build, and lead the internal systems that power Mistral’s growth. This is a highly impactful role at the intersection of engineering, finance, data, and operations.
As our first hire in Enterprise Systems, you will ship hands-on (Node/TypeScript + React or Python/FastAPI) while setting the technical direction, partnering with C-level stakeholders, and growing the team over time. You’ll turn complex workflows into scalable software: integrations, connectors, and dashboards that make information flow across Mistral.
What you will do
• Own the platform from zero: design and implement integrations, connectors, and workflows across internal systems (CRM, billing, HRIS, planning tools).
• Lead the technical direction: define architecture, standards, and best practices for reliability, maintainability, and data consistency.
• Stay hands-on : build end-to-end web apps with a pragmatic approach to delivery and iteration.
• Stakeholder leadership: partner directly with CFO, CTO and team leads to gather requirements, prioritize, and translate business needs into software.
• Enable the org: deliver sleek, self-service tooling and dashboards that reduce manual work and accelerate decision-making across teams.
• Lay the foundations to scale: help shape the hiring plan, mentor future teammates, and evolve into the team’s Tech Lead as we grow.
About you
• Full-stack engineer with strong experience in TypeScript/Node + React or Python (FastAPI) + React/TS; comfortable building web apps end-to-end.
• Track record shipping internal systems (APIs, integrations, connectors, dashboards) in enterprise-like environments (banking/insurance/industry/consulting).
• Hands-on and technically strong, with excellent judgment around trade-offs, maintainability, and operational reliability.
• Leadership mindset: you’ve led initiatives or mentored engineers (formal or informal) and enjoy setting standards for others.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management; you like turning ambiguous problems into a clear plan and shipped software.
• Low-ego, team-spirited, autonomous; motivated by enabling others and improving how an organization operates.
Nice to have
• Experience with LLMs / agentic workflows.
• Exposure to market-leading SaaS business systems (Salesforce, Atlassian, Oracle, etc.).
• Familiarity with infra & operations (Docker, CI/CD, K8s…).
• Comfortable working closely with internal stakeholders, including C-levels.
